Term 5 Week 4

Here is an overview of our learning activities for week commencing 10th May 2021.

In Phonics this week we will be learning about alternative spellings for the ‘ar’ sound (‘ar’ like in car, ‘a’ like in path and ‘al’ like in half) and alternative spellings for the ‘oo’ sound (‘oo’ like in good, ‘oul’ like in could and ‘u’ like in put). In English we will be writing questions and learning to use question marks correctly. We will also be talking about exclamation marks and where to use them. In Maths we will be making equal groups by sharing and finding half of an object or group of objects.

This week in RE we will be learning about the Islamic story of the crying camel. In our topic work we will be talking about some space explorers, including Neil Armstrong and Mae Jemison. We will also be reading Look Up! by Nathan Bryon, which is a story about a girl who wants to be an astronaut and to study the stars. We will be talking about the artwork of Andy Goldsworthy and starting to plan our own outdoor art.
